    I heard once that they named them in alphabetical order. So if the last one is called Fred, they name the next one Graham, then the next one Harry, and so on.

    Not those exact names, but u know what i mean. F, G, H, etc.

    Probs bollox like. What have these recent ones been called? I havent really seen much news lately.

    They are named in alphabetical order and boy girl boy girl, every season it goes back to A

    I have finally come to think thgat the immigratiuon service did me a favour...Gareth got evacuated from his house and all the hospital shut down...and I was thinking I was about to go into labour :lol:

    Hurricane Frances did me a favour though...ive been bugging him to get rid of a tree in our back garden for years cus it clocks my sun...Frances blew it away and left our house intact
    :love:

    thats a really nasty thought.. can't they just get a plane to go around the hurricane and come home?

    I wouldnt worry chick...they usually hit Florida then fizzle out if they go anywhere in the gulf of mexico. They aren't in the path of Ivan...theres no more hanging about at the minute is there?

    someone was sayin, think it was on the radio, that us brits have got it totally wrong when it comes to florida. its pretty hot all year round but the majority of brits seem to go smack bang in their hurricane season, when most of the floridians are doin everything they can to avoid the place :lol:
